Lebot-challenge-ddns NPM

lebot-challenge-ddns

A dns-based strategy for node-letsencrypt for setting based on namex, retrieving, and clearing ACME DNS-01 challenges issued by the ACME server
It creates a subdomain record for _acme-challenge with keyAuthDigest to be tested by the ACME server.
_acme-challenge.example.com   TXT   xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx    TTL 60
Safe to use with node cluster
Safe to use with ephemeral services (Heroku, Joyent, etc)

Installation

npm i lebot-challenge-ddns

Usage

import {DDNSChallenger} from "lebot-challenge-ddns";

const challenge = DDNSChallenger.create({
  user: 'john.doe@example.com',
  token: '...',
  ttl: 60,

  debug: false,
});

import LE = require('letsencrypt');

LE.create({
  server: LE.stagingServerUrl,                               // Change to LE.productionServerUrl in production
  challengeType: 'dns-01',
  challenges: {
    'dns-01': challenge
  },
  approveDomains: [ 'example.com' ]
});

NOTE: If you request a certificate with 6 domains listed, it will require 6 individual challenges.

Exposed Methods

For ACME Challenge:

set(opts, domain, challange, keyAuthorization, done)
get(opts, domain, challenge, done)
remove(opts, domain, challenge, done)

Note: get() is a no-op for dns-01.

For node-letsencrypt internals:

getOptions() returns the internal defaults merged with the user-supplied options
loopback(opts, domain, challange, done) performs a dns lookup of the txt record
test(opts, domain, challange, keyAuthorization, done) runs set, loopback, remove, loopback
